He's a piece of meat to the Brewers, and that's how they've treated him...
As for Burnett, that one has disaster written all over it. He hasn't earned his contract from Toronto, and now you want to give him even more years at a much larger salary when he's three years older? |
My feeling is that w/ the Yanks missing the playoffs, the Dodgers (who aren't going to win it all, but come close) getting better, the Angels (who are probably lose to the Cubs) also interested...that those guys mentioned are going to get paid BIG TIME.
Of Course I don't like CC's work load this year, but surround him with type flight, quality starters and maybe he actually gets the rest he needs.
I have always beena fan of Burnett and SOMEONE is going to entice him with a big contract...why not us.
